About:240-Hour Visa-Free Transit

ICN -> PVG -> PEK -> NRT allowed?

I previously asked if ICN -> PVG -> NRT was allowed which I understand it is. Now I'm wondering if I can add Beijing in since it also has 144 hours so I can also stoy by the great wall. Also, what's stopping me from simply training from PVG to PEK R/T if it's not allowed and then flying back out of PVG To NRT as long as I'm within 144 hours?

Dear, ICN -> PVG -> PEK -> NRT is not eligible for the 144 hour free transit. If you want to use the 144 hour free transit, you should travel like ICN -> PVG -> NRT or ICN -> PEK -> NRT.

There are document checks at train stations. This isn't Via Rail buddy.

Lol. Probably a good thing. Via rail is also so expensive, delayed and slow.

They don´t check the visa at the train station.

But it´s illegal and if you get catch you´re in real trouble.

You'll also get caught if you stay overnight in Beijing, because of the police registration.
